Trip to Edmonton=HOT. Today's rehearsal=NOT

Okay, so trip to Edmonton equals just about the coolest thing ever. Ther, wish you coulda come. You were missed. Everyone else (cuz I know I saw you all there... including Chel for the first time), yay for 5:00 bed-time (average), West Ed shopping, going to HOJA shows, and eating very not-good-for-you food. How crazy was camping in Jason's yard? Wusses... Us Saskatchewan kids were the only ones who could tough the elements. Yeah, that's right. I said it.
So when all was said and done, I have for myself the following new clothes from West Ed: (from head to toe)
*A new visor that doubles as a wash cloth
*A new pair of sunglasses... I know, I know.
*New earrings (the black ones look good on me no matter what you say :P )
*A snazzy new blue tank top- very bar star in a good way.
*A new zipper upper long-sleeved shirt (cuz we all knew I needed another one... not). And p.s. Ther, it has a crooked zipper cuz I'm cool.
*A new watch cuz mine died
*A purple butterfly ring, which Bob, Chel, Dee and I all bought together. Except mine died. The butterfly came off.
*New capris which I've yet to wear, but will.
*A new thong, beige so you can wear it under anything. (Those smart underwear inventing people)
*A new scarf that doubles as a belt and head-band. Bob bought the same one. Oh yes we did! Obviously.
*Lastly, a new pair of shoes!!! I needed a new pair. Bob didn't. Bob bought a new pair anyway. That is so Bob.
Shopping people: did I forget anything?

Okay, so now I'm trying to think of anything I can say that most of you don't already know, so none of you say "You don't have to tell me, I was there." Okay, how about Brennan said just about the nicest thing to me that I think anyone has ever said, which no one ever has before, I'm pretty sure. I'd tell you what it was, but then I'd have to kill you. And it's not dirty. Get your minds outta the gutter. Seriously.
Point is: I had a great time. I had an awesome time being with Bob. And so much fun with Chel and Dee and everyone else. And a vital time with Bren. The drive there was really fun and the drive home was even better. The camp-fire was a definite highlight. I love voices and harmonies coming from everywhere.
Anyway, what a weekend. What a great, great weekend. And Bren, thanks for eating chocolate-cream pie with me last night. That was awesomely funNess.

So.... hard... to... pull..... self... out.... of.... bed... this...... morning.
So, with my hair still full of hairspray from Dee's creation (which was hotNess itself), I threw my hair into a pony tail, threw on some dance clothes, grabbed a coffee and toast and flew out the door at 8:30 this morning. Rehearsals were tediousNess itself all morning. All the kids were tired and lazy from their weekend off, and us teachers were feeling entirely drained because of it. It was so hard to keep the energy level up and to try to encourage the kids.
The afternoon went better. I blocked the script for three hours, and it was actually really fun. Dang, I just have a thing for blocking. I only have two scenes to finish tomorrow that I didn't get through today.
Tomorrow will be crazyNess itself. First day without mirrors; full runs of songs and script. Yeesh.
Well, you know what, frickin BRING IT!
I better hit the hay if I'm going to rise to the occasion tomorrow.
This has been your official update.

tediousNess--bah! Only two more days of boot-camp rehearsals!
